WWE "Creative" At Its' Laziest As... WWE NXT Referee Gets Former Diva Champion’s Name (Paige? AAAHAHAHAHAHA)
How lazy can you get 'creatively'? WELL when you're a member of the 'creatively challenged' creative team in the WWE it's obvious you can get as lazy? As you fucking want.
WWE NXT and 205 Live referee, Chloe Christmas, is now going forward as Paige. The WWE ref made the change on her Twitter account and encouraged fans to follow her new Instagram account.
Not a real interesting choice, but just obviously lazy on their part considering former NXT Women’s Champion and WWE Divas Champion Paige is still under contract with WWE.
You mean to tell me, out of al the choices they could 'creatively' come up with, THIS was the best they could 'creatively' scrape up? LMAO!
Paige was last regularly seen on WWE TV as the manager of the Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) in 2019. She did make an appearance (via Skype) on SmackDown in March of last year to announce a women’s title match for WrestleMania 36.
Paige also made the transition to co-host of WWE Backstage on FS1 in late 2019 until the pandemic brought that show to a halt.
More recently, the former champ has dropped hints about a possible return to the ring after a neck injury in 2017 forced her into retirement. Earlier this week, Paige also tweeted out for WWE to “bring back Nia” after Jax was among those released. she has been teasing a comeback and has said that her neck has been getting better. Her contract expires in a few months so, in theory, she could wrestle elsewhere if she gets cleared.
The WWE Superstar has since reacted to the news with a laughing emoji and a Spider-Man pointing meme. Which she has since deleted.
BUT.. She didn't delete in time because here it is.

Jim Cornette on WWE & NWA In Chicago In the 1980s
An added note to this since I was born and raised in Chicago. The UIC Pavilion was actually much easier to get to using public transportation than the Rosemont Horizon was. I literally walked down the street I lived on to the "EL" station, got on the train and about a half hour later the stop was about a half a block from the Pavilion. THAT KIND of convenience was great for a fan like me back then. Didn't have to worry about parking, parking garage charges, etc.
Charlie Haas on Getting Attacked by a Fan in Irving Texas! (Haas Got 'Checked' By A Fan, LOL)
I covered this story when it happened. Where he got 'checked' by a fan. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2021/06/charlie-haas-gets-punched-in-face-by.html
Back in the day if a wrestler got smacked down by a fan like this? They lost their job. Imagine the bragging rights that fans now knowing he dropped Haas with one punched, lol.

Ron Simmons Explains Race-Related Name Suggested For Doom
WWE Hall of Famer and former WCW World Heavyweight Champion Ron Simmons joined Stories With Brisco and Bradshaw to talk about his Hall of Fame career. Simmons‘ first big break in wrestling was as a member of the tag team “Doom” in WCW, alongside Butch Reed, who passed away earlier this year. He recalled the moment where he and Reed, into their run, learned that WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long would be their manager.
“I still don’t know how that happened,” Simmons said. “Butch and I were together. We walk in there one day, and all of a sudden, here comes this little weaselly looking guy with a do-rag on his head. And all of a sudden he comes up and says, ‘hey, so here’s what we’re going to do right here on this interview.’ Butch and I are looking at each other like, ‘what the hell are you talking about? When did you get in here?’ He was like, ‘what, they didn’t tell you? I’m going to be your manager now.’ And you know how Butch is. He says, ‘man, you ain’t going to be managing me. You get out of here!'”
Simmons continued, explaining that Reed wasn’t as on board about the idea of the team as he was. He also mentioned how the team was originally based more on their race, and how great a time it was to work in the WCW tag team scene back then.
“I’m not exactly sure that Butch was really on board with it to begin with,” Simmons said. “I think that he still wanted to go on and do his singles thing a little more at that point, and I could see why he was still having reservations about doing it. When they first came and proposed it to me, of course I was on board with it because it’s Butch Reed, and he’s had some level of success in this business. This was a great opportunity for me. Right out of the gate, it came out that first they wanted to make it a little bit too racial. They wanted to name us Ebony Express. That was something that Butch and I vehemently said, ‘no, man. We don’t want to go out there and try to play this race thing. If we’re going to do this thing, we want to go out there and be these two characters that are good at what we do.’ That was one thing that had corrected to start out with. If it had been along those lines, you’d have to continue along those lines of playing the racist thing. If you’re going to break those barriers, you have to start somewhere. So we felt that wasn’t good for both of us at that time. I’m really glad we did that.
“Secondly, we had to come up with what we’re going to be named. The Road Warriors were already Legion of Doom and we were going to be working with them. So they decided they were just going to call us Doom. At that point, that’s how it came together. And then that’s when I got together with Butch and it was a big thrill for me. Sometimes, he and I didn’t see eye to eye. We had our ups and downs on the road, because Butch was his own man. You always knew where he stood — that’s what I loved about him. He was very helpful when it came to tag team skills. So I learned a lot from Butch during that time we were together. It was unbelievable. The best thing about it, at that point in tag team wrestling, you couldn’t have asked for a better period to be in a tag team. You had Rock N’ Roll Express, you had all these guys you could work with: Barbarian, Warlord, you had the Road Warriors, the Steiner Brothers. It was absolutely phenomenal. That’s the best thing I loved about it. You could get in there, work the way I think it should be short of killing someone, but working to the point where people understood, ‘hey, this guy’s really in a wrestling match.’ It was a phenomenal period of time, and I really loved working with all of those guys.”
Simmons then returned back to Long, who would manage Doom for a year until Simmons and Reed broke up at WrestleWar ’91 in February. Despite their initial misgivings, Simmons says Long proved to be a valuable member of the team.
“A lot of people don’t know that Teddy has done everything in this business,” Simmons said. “Here’s a guy who really paid his dues. He’s drove the ring truck, he’s been a referee, he’s done all facets of what you could do in this business. If there’s any guy that you want to listen to that has some knowledge of this business, it’s Ted. He was absolutely a welcome addition for Doom as we went on. He knew how to come in and how to garner heat as being our manager. He’s absolutely great on the mic. And he would come back and even give us pointers on how things went in the match, and we’d use them in the next match. He proved to be a very addition as our manager.”
